At Giunti Odeon continues Naza, the film event that made its mark at the latest Venice Film Festival, where it won the Special Jury Prize. At night, on the rooftops of Tel Aviv, recordings are made of anonymous testimonies from intelligence operatives and members of the Israeli army who, since 2023, have taken part in the systematic spying on, surveillance of and killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor (two of the four co-directors of the 2025 Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land) and produced by The Guardian and the Israeli-Palestinian publications +972 Magazine and Local Call, the documentary details the technologies – from wiretapping and hacking to artificial intelligence – used to monitor the population and how they directly support a long-running campaign of bombings, drone strikes and sniper attacks that have resulted in tens of thousands of deaths across the West Bank in recent years.

The restaurant
Open daily: 11:30 AM - 12:00 AM
Caffè Odeon in Florence was born from the encounter with the Giunti publishing house, and from the project to give new life to the historic Odeon cinema, transforming it into a multifunctional cultural center.
The idea is simple and ambitious: to create a space open all day, like the great Mitteleuropean cafés, where you can enjoy dishes from different gastronomic traditions, a varied pastry selection, a carefully curated coffee service, as well as wines, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.
Eating, drinking a coffee or a good glass of wine have much in common with reading a book or watching a film: they are different ways of experiencing stories, through the senses. It is this connection that makes our dream a reality.
